“I think the last few months of the year are going to treat us very well, it’s going to be awesome playing with such a great group of bands. I’m especially looking forward to the dates in October and November with Steel Train and Forgive Durden; Drunk Like Bible Times will be out by then and we’ll be able to get some real feedback about it” says guitarist/keyboardist Robert Cissel.

In 2007, the band logged 162 shows on tour with the likes of Circa Survive, Straylight Run, and many more diverse artists. This past Spring, the five-piece spent just over a month opening for emo/indie powerhouses and fellow Arizonians, Jimmy Eat World.
